Do you sometimes feel the internet is holding you hostage? Don’t you wish the internet would look like it’s holding you hostage? Worry no more! Dear-sir-or-madam is a bookmarklet that makes web pages look like they’re ransom notes. For example, like this:
How to use
Bookmark this by dragging it to your bookmark bar: ransomify!. Then go to a non-https webpage, and hit that bookmark. Then, wait a bit. Then, BAM. Ransomified.
Disclaimers? Disclaimers!

It’s not the fastest it can be, but it’s definitely not the n^2 abomination I wrote in the first iteration either.
